Hi All,
  I am just getting familiar with the Python API and am using the UCDAVIS cluster scripts as a base.
  The photo aligning and dense cloud processing works fine, however, for a photo set of 448 images the buildDem says:

   generating 7363055x8268815

which I think is excessively large.  I've left it as the default resolution which is estimates to be around 0.012.  I've tried passing in larger resolution values to buildDem but it always initializes with the same size.

Is there anyway to reduce the size for memory or will do I just have to reduce the resolution with exportDem?

Hello DirkS,

In most cases it means that the referencing on the chunk is incorrect. How do you apply referencing, georeferencing or scaling to the chunk in this project?

If the problem is not yet solved, are you able to save the project just before Build DEM stage and open it in GUI mode in order to see, if there are incorrectly aligned cameras or the problems with the referencing?
